Linus Torvalds
cb5573868e Loongarch: 
- Add more CPUCFG mask bits.
 
 - Improve feature detection.
 
 - Add lazy load support for FPU and binary translation (LBT) register state.
 
 - Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel devices.
 
 - Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest.
 
 - Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests.
 
 ARM:
 
 - Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not
   implemented to be reported as a normal trap rather than as an UNDEF
   exception.
 
 - Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of
   UXN/PXN/XN bugs in the process.
 
 - Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
   SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers.
 
 - More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
   guests.
 
 - Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
   the ability to attack the hypervisor.
 
 - Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
   version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
   encoding.
 
 - Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
   guest.
 
 - Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support.
 
 - A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators stored
   in guest data structures.
 
 - A small set of FPSIMD cleanups.
 
 - Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
   allocation.
 
 - Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes.
 
 RISC-V:
 
 - Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
   kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(),
   and kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
 
 - Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
 
 - Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
 
 - Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
   register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
 
 - Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
 
 - Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
 
 s390:
 
 - Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
 
 - Completely new memory management.  s390 was a special snowflake that enlisted
   help from the architecture's page table management to build hypervisor
   page tables, in particular enabling sharing the last level of page
   tables.  This however was a lot of code (~3K lines) in order to support
   KVM, and also blocked several features.  The biggest advantages is
   that the page size of userspace is completely independent of the
   page size used by the guest: userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and
   hugetlbfs as it sees fit, and in fact transparent hugepages were not
   possible before.  It's also now possible to have nested guests and
   guests with huge pages running on the same host.
 
 - Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
 
 - Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
 
 x86:
 
 - Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware (contexted
   switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing direct access to data
   MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).  KVM still intercepts
   access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to
   prevent the guest from profiling sensitive host state.  This is more
   accurate, since it has no risk of contention and thus dropped events, and
   also has significantly less overhead.
 
   For more information, see the commit message for merge commit bf2c3138ae
   ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD").
 
 - Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all the same
   reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first KVM_RUN.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV MSRs
   when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled, even if those
   were advertised as supported to userspace,
 
 - Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs, where KVM
   would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry.
 
 - Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM (for x86
   only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.  Only a few exports
   that are intended for external usage, and those are allowed explicitly.
 
 - When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore -EBUSY instead
   of WARNing.  Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU into what should be an
   impossible state, and spurious exit to userspace on -EBUSY does not really
   do anything to solve the issue.
 
 - Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being blocked when vCPU
   is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller
   stuffing architecturally impossible states into KVM.
 
 - Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything beyond
   enumerating feature flags to userspace.
 
 - Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2.
 
 - Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the intended
   setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to unexpected changes
   in KVM's golden configuration.
 
 - Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI broadcasts
   when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest (currently limited to
   split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).  Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor
   Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an option as some userspaces have come to rely
   on KVM's buggy behavior (KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective
   of whether or not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs).
 
 - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.
 
 - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
   ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
   and/or user, and all of which were useless.
 
 - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
   more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow fropping
   these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n.
 
 - Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
   KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
 
 - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.
 
 - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
   to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
   for KVM's own cache of ISR information.
 
 - Drop a dead function declaration.
 
 - Minor cleanups.
 
 x86 (Intel):
 
 - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
   switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
   VM-Exit.  The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
   bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
   auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
   "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.
 
 - Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page faults,
   and instead always reflect them into the guest.  Since KVM doesn't shadow
   EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM interference and
   can't be resolved by KVM.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup handler even
   if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed.
 
 - Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported, mostly to
   avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other features, where KVM wants
   enable VMCS shadowing for fields that conditionally exist.
 
 - Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to load (or
   refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch.
 
 x86 (AMD):
 
 - Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure.
 
 - Add support for virtualizing ERAPS.  Note, correct virtualization of ERAPS
   relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM to reduce the
   set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must* flush the RAP.
 
 - Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported according to
   L1's virtual CPU model.
 
 - Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's fastpath
   for EPT Misconfig.
 
 - Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently of SVM,
   and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0.
 
 - Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM.
 
 - Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when emulating VMLOAD
   or VMSAVE on behalf of L2.
 
 - Misc fixes and cleanups.
 
 x86 selftests:
 
 - Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking.
 
 - Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU support,
   and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT (for L2 guests).
 
 - Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM.
 
 - Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE.
 
 - Rework the nested dirty log test, originally added as a regression test for
   PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to improve test coverage
   and to hopefully make the test easier to understand and maintain.
 
 guest_memfd:
 
 - Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked hugepage
   handling.  SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it can do it via
   the RMP.
 
 - Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE
   and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the source page to be 4KiB aligned, to
   avoid non-trivial complexity for something that no known VMM seems to be
   doing and to avoid an API special case for in-place conversion, which
   simply can't support unaligned sources.
 
 - When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common code and
   pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead of letting vendor
   code do the heavy lifting.  Doing so avoids a looming deadlock bug with
   in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap
   invalidate lock.
 
 Generic:
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM would ignore the vCPU's selected address space when
   creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.  Actually this bug
   could not be hit even on x86, the only architecture with multiple
   address spaces, but it's a bug nevertheless.

b52343d1cb ARM: clean up the memset64() C wrapper 
The current logic to split the 64-bit argument into its 32-bit halves is
byte-order specific and a bit clunky.  Use a union instead which is
easier to read and works in all cases.

GCC still generates the same machine code.

While at it, rename the arguments of the __memset64() prototype to
actually reflect their semantics.

cd7a5651db alpha: add missing address argument in call to page_table_check_pte_clear() 
After the merge of the alpha and mm trees, this code does not compile,
as a parameter is missing in a call to page_table_check_pte_clear().

The parameter was re-added in commit d7b4b67eb6 ("mm/page_table_check:
reinstate address parameter in [__]page_table_check_pte_clear()").
The alpha-specific code was newly added in commit dd5712f337 ("alpha:
fix user-space corruption during memory compaction").

Linus Torvalds
37a93dd5c4 Networking changes for 7.0 
Core & protocols
 ----------------
 
  - A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
    make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls for
    small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path. This
    generates better and faster code with very small or no text size
    increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than the
    actual inlined helper.
 
  - Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
    also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
    basis.
 
  - Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
    Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
    buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage by
    up to ~30%.
 
  - Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the RX
    path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
    user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without the
    HBH hint.
 
  - Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
    resolved out of a different interface than the one specified, aligning
    IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
 
  - Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the rate
    shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing a
    single global rate on the interface.
 
  - Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
    netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations that
    are safer in crash scenarios.
 
  - Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information, saving
    cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
 
  - Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most protocols,
    avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
 
  - Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
 
  - Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
 
  - Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies between
    the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
 
  - Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
    across different network namespaces.
 
  - Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
    optimizations.
 
  - Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
    to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes back
    online.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a DPLL
    device via netlink.
 
  - Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
    media ports over a single MAC.
 
  - Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties, to
    generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential signaling.
 
  - Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.
 
 Device drivers
 --------------
 
  - Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.
 
  - Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet controller.
 
  - Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches
 
  - Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver.
 
  - Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to
    hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl().
 
  - Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX
    ring count retrieval. Also remove the legacy fallback path.
 
  - Ethernet high-speed NICs:
    - Broadcom (bnxt, bng):
      - bnxt: add FW interface update to support FEC stats histogram and

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20

Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU
hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct
access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts
access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the
guest from profiling sensitive host state.

To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing
for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param).  The Mediated PMU
is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing
setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that
may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to
profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot,
entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc.

Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated
PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and
thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster
emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on
a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from
within the guest:

  Perf command:
  a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions  -a --overwrite
  b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite

  Guest performance overhead:
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  | Test case          | emulated vPMU | all passthrough | passthrough with |
  |                    |               |                 | event filters    |
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  | basic-sampling     |   33.62%      |    4.24%        |   6.21%          |

KVM x86 APIC-ish changes for 6.20

 - Fix a benign bug where KVM could use the wrong memslots (ignored SMM) when
   creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.

 - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.

 - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
   ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
   and/or user, and all of which were useless.

 - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
   more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow burying the
   RTC shenanigans behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.

 - Bury all of ioapic.h and KVM_IRQCHIP_KERNEL behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.

 - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.

 - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
   switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
   VM-Exit.  The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
   bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
   auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
   "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.

 - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
   to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
   for KVM's own cache of ISR information.

 - Drop a dead function declaration.

KVM guest_memfd changes for 6.20

 - Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked hugepage
   handling, and instead rely on SNP (the only user of the tracking) to do its
   own tracking via the RMP.

 - Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE
   and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the source page to be 4KiB aligned, to
   avoid non-trivial complexity for a non-existent usecase (and because
   in-place conversion simply can't support unaligned sources).

 - When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common code and
   pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead of letting vendor
   code do the heavy lifting.  Doing so avoids a looming deadlock bug with
   in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap
   invalidate lock.

6589b3d76d soc: devicetree updates for 7.0 
There are a handful of new SoCs this time, all of these are
 more or less related to chips in a wider family:
 
  - SpacemiT Key Stone K3 is an 8-core risc-v chip, and the first
    widely available RVA23 implementation. Note that this is
    entirely unrelated with the similarly named Texas Instruments
    K3 chip family that follwed the TI Keystone2 SoC.
 
  - The Realtek Kent family of SoCs contains three chip models
    rtd1501s, rtd1861b and rtd1920s, and is related to their earlier
    Set-top-box and NAS products such as rtd1619, but is built
    on newer Arm Cortex-A78 cores.
 
  - The Qualcomm Milos family includes the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3
    (SM7635) mobile phone SoC built around Armv9 Kryo cores of the Arm
    Cortex-A720 generation. This one is used in the Fairphone Gen 6
 
  - Qualcomm Kaanapali is a new SoC based around eight high
    performance Oryon CPU cores
 
  - NXP i.MX8QP and i.MX952 are both feature reduced versions of
    chips we already support, i.e. the i.MX8QM and i.MX952, with
    fewer CPU cores and I/O interfaces.
 
 As part of a cleanup, a number of SoC specific devicetree files got
 removed because they did not have a single board using the .dtsi files
 and they were never compile tested as a result: Samsung s3c6400,
 ST spear320s, ST stm32mp21xc/stm32mp23xc/stm32mp25xc, Renesas
 r8a779m0/r8a779m2/r8a779m4/r8a779m6/r8a779m7/r8a779m8/r8a779mb/
 r9a07g044c1/r9a07g044l1/r9a07g054l1/r9a09g047e37, and TI am3703/am3715.
 All of these could be restored easily if a new board gets merged.
 
 Broadcom/Cavium/Marvell ThunderX2 gets removed along with its only
 machine, as all remaining users are assumed to be using ACPI
 based firmware.
 
 A relatively small number of 43 boards get added this time, and
 almost all of them for arm64. Aside from the reference boards for
 the newly added SoCs, this includes:
 
  - Three server boards use 32-bit ASpeed BMCs
 
  - One more reference board for 32-bit Microchip LAN9668
 
  - 64-bit Arm single-board computers based on Amlogic s905y4,
    CIX sky1, NXP ls1028a/imx8mn/imx8mp/imx91/imx93/imx95,
    Qualcomm qcs6490/qrb2210 and Rockchip rk3568/rk3588s
 
  - Carrier board for SOMs using Intel agilex5, Marvell Armada 7020,
    NXP iMX8QP, Mediatek mt8370/mt8390 and rockchip rk3588
 
  - Two mobile phones using Snapdragon 845
 
  - A gaming device and a NAS box, both based on Rockchips rk356x
 
 On top of the newly added boards and SoCs, there is a lot of
 background activity going into cleanups, in particular towards
 getting a warning-free dtc build, and the usual work on adding
 support for more hardware on the previously added machines.

2b398c0562 asm-generic header updates for 7.0 
A series from Thomas Weißschuh cleans up the UAPI header files to no
 longer contain any references to Kconfig symbols, as these make no sense
 in userspace. The build-time check for these was originally added by Sam
 Ravnborg in linux-2.6.28, and a later version started warning for all
 newly added CONFIG_* checks here but kept a list of known exceptions. With
 the last exceptions gone from that list, the warning is now unconditional
 in 'make headers_install'.

Merge tag 'asm-generic-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic

Pull asm-generic header updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "A series from Thomas Weißschuh cleans up the UAPI header files to no
  longer contain any references to Kconfig symbols, as these make no
  sense in userspace.

  The build-time check for these was originally added by Sam Ravnborg in
  linux-2.6.28, and a later version started warning for all newly added
  CONFIG_* checks here but kept a list of known exceptions. With the
  last exceptions gone from that list, the warning is now unconditional
  in 'make headers_install'.

  John Garry contributed a cleanup of cpumask_of_node()"

1ca28333e4 x86: keep legacy generated vdso files around in .gitignore file 
Commit 93d73005bf ("x86/entry/vdso: Rename vdso_image_* to
vdso*_image") updated the vdso .gitignore file with the new filenames,
which is certainly not incorrect.

However, while adding new generated names is obviously the right thing
to do, you should *not* immediately remove the old filenames from the
.gitignore file when things move around or get renamed, because people
still have those old generated files in their build trees - and they
haven't suddenly become valid files to commit to the repository just
because they were moved or renamed.

While it's mostly just a slight visual nuisance for 'git status' that
can be fixed up with a clean build tree, it can become more serious than
that: see for example commit 04a3389b35 ("Remove stale generated
'genheaders' file").

That commit removed up a stale generated file that had been carelessly
committed by a kernel developer because it wasn't properly ignored any
more and thus showed up as a new file in their tree.

Export plpks_wrapping_is_supported() so trusted-keys links cleanly

This patch is intended to be applied on top of the earlier "Extend "trusted

f1c538ca81 Updates for the VDSO subsystem: 
- Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres()
 
     This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and
     finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI.
 
   - Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO
 
     The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number from
     the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to make it
     work.
 
   - Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()
 
     The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to pass
     -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values
     __builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores
 
   - Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
 
     The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when __beNN
     types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a special
     'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate the Generic
     in __unqual_scalar_typeof().
 
     Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the problem,
     but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity check to sparse
     builds, which validates that sparse is available and capable of handling it.
 
   - Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common()
 
     Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function call
     overhead and problems with automatic stack variable initialization.
 
     Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than the
     un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size.

3381d7b2b3 Updates for the [PCI] MSI subsystem: 
- Add interrupt redirection infrastructure
 
     Some PCI controllers use a single demultiplexing interrupt for the MSI
     interrupts of subordinate devices.
 
     This prevents setting the interrupt affinity of device interrupts, which
     causes device interrupts to be delivered to a single CPU. That obviously is
     counterproductive for multi-queue devices and interrupt balancing.
 
     To work around this limitation the new infrastructure installs a dummy
     irq_set_affinity() callback which captures the affinity mask and picks a
     redirection target CPU out of the mask.
 
     When the PCI controller demultiplexes the interrupts it invokes a new
     handling function in the core, which either runs the interrupt handler in
     the context of the target CPU or delegates it to irq_work on the target CPU.
 
   - Utilize the interrupt redirection mechanism in the PCI DWC host controller
     driver.
 
     This allows affinity control for the subordinate device MSI interrupts
     instead of being randomly executed on the CPU which runs the demultiplex
     handler.
 
   - Replace the binary 64-bit MSI flag with a DMA mask
 
     Some PCI devices have PCI_MSI_FLAGS_64BIT in the MSI capability, but
     implement less than 64 address bits. This breaks on platforms where such a
     device is assigned an MSI address higher than what's supported.
 
     With the binary 64-bit flag there is no other choice than disabling 64-bit
     MSI support which leaves the device disfunctional.
 
     By using a DMA mask the address limit of a device can be described
     correctly which provides support for the above scenario.
 
   - Make use of the DMA mask based address limit in the hda/intel and radeon
     drivers to enable them on affected platforms.

66bbe4a8ed Updates for the interrupt core subsystem: 
- Remove the interrupt timing infrastructure
 
    This was added seven years ago to be used for power management purposes, but
    that integration never happened.
 
  - Clean up the remaining setup_percpu_irq() users
 
    The memory allocator is available when interrupts can be requested so there
    is not need for static irq_action. Move the remaining users to
    request_percpu_irq() and delete the historical cruft.
 
  - Warn when interrupt flag inconsistencies are detected in request*_irq().
 
    Inconsistent flags can lead to hard to diagnose malfunction. The fallout of
    this new warning has been addressed in next and the fixes are coming in via
    the maintainer trees and the tip irq/cleanup pull requests.
 
  - Invoke affinity notifier when CPU hotplug breaks affinity
 
    Otherwise the code using the notifier misses the affinity change and
    operates on stale information.

Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the interrupt core subsystem:

   - Remove the interrupt timing infrastructure

     This was added seven years ago to be used for power management
     purposes, but that integration never happened.

   - Clean up the remaining setup_percpu_irq() users

     The memory allocator is available when interrupts can be requested
     so there is not need for static irq_action. Move the remaining
     users to request_percpu_irq() and delete the historical cruft.

   - Warn when interrupt flag inconsistencies are detected in
     request*_irq().

     Inconsistent flags can lead to hard to diagnose malfunction. The
     fallout of this new warning has been addressed in next and the
     fixes are coming in via the maintainer trees and the tip
     irq/cleanup pull requests.

   - Invoke affinity notifier when CPU hotplug breaks affinity

     Otherwise the code using the notifier misses the affinity change
     and operates on stale information.

   - The usual cleanups and improvements"

4e21e585b6 A series of treewide cleanups to ensure interrupt request consistency. 
- Add the missing IRQF_COND_ONESHOT flag to devm_request_irq()
 
     This is inconsistent vs. request_irq() and causes the same issues which
     where addressed with the introduction of this flag
 
   - Cleanup IRQF_ONESHOT and IRQF_NO_THREAD usage
 
     Quite some drivers have inconsistent interrupt request flags related to
     interrupt threading namely IRQF_ONESHOT and IRQF_NO_THREAD. This leads to
     warnings and/or malfunction when forced interrupt threading is enabled.
 
   - Remove stub primary (hard interrupt) handlers
 
     A bunch of drivers implement a stub primary (hard interrupt) handler which
     just returns IRQ_WAKE_THREAD. The same functionality is provided by the
     core code when the primary handler argument of request_thread_irq() is set
     to NULL.

36ae1c45b2 Scheduler changes for v7.0: 
Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
 
  - Further consolidate configurable preemption modes: reduce
    the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
    PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number
    of preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy'
    on up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc,
    riscv, s390, x86).
 
    None and voluntary are only available as legacy features
    on platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet,
    or which don't even support preemption.
 
    The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and
    voluntary preemption altogether.
 
    (Peter Zijlstra)
 
 RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support:
 
 This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it
 enters a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when
 the thread is scheduled out inside of the critical section.
 
  - Add fields and constants for time slice extension
  - Provide static branch for time slice extensions
  - Add statistics for time slice extensions
  - Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
  - Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
  - Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
  - Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
  - Reset slice extension when scheduled
  - Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
  - entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
  - selftests: Implement time slice extension test
 
    (Thomas Gleixner)
 
  - Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
  - Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
  - Lower default slice extension
  - selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script
 
    (Peter Zijlstra)
 
 Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:
 
  - Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU,
    which improves the scalability of various workloads.
    (Shubhang Kaushik)
 
  - Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching
    (Blake Jones)
 
  - Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups:
 
    - Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
    - Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
    - Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead
 
      (Shrikanth Hegde)
 
  - Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)
 
  - Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
  - Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
  - Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()
 
    (Yury Norov)
 
 DL scheduler updates:
 
  - Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks (by Andrea Righi and
    Joel Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)
 
 RT scheduler updates:
 
  - Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)
 
 Entry code updates and performance improvements, which is part of the
 scheduler tree in this cycle due to interdependencies with the RSEQ
 based time slice extension work:
 
   - Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
   - Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
   - Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
   - Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()
 
     (Jinjie Ruan)
 
 Scheduler core updates:
 
  - Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
  - Avoid rq->lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
  - Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =>
           rcu_dereference_sched_domain()
  - <linux/compiler_types.h>: Add the __signed_scalar_typeof() helper
 
    (Peter Zijlstra)
 
 Fair scheduler updates/refactoring:
 
  - Fold the sched_avg update
  - Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
  - Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
  - Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
  - Limit hrtick work
 
    (Peter Zijlstra)
 
  - Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Scheduler Kconfig space updates:

   - Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)

     Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
     PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
     preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
     up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
     x86).

     None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
     platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
     even support preemption.

     The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
     preemption altogether.

  RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner
  and Peter Zijlstra):

  This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
  a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
  is scheduled out inside of the critical section.

   - Add fields and constants for time slice extension
   - Provide static branch for time slice extensions
   - Add statistics for time slice extensions
   - Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
   - Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
   - Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
   - Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
   - Reset slice extension when scheduled
   - Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
   - entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
   - selftests: Implement time slice extension test
   - Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
   - Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
   - Lower default slice extension
   - selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script

  Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:

   - Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU, which
     improves the scalability of various workloads (Shubhang Kaushik)

   - Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching (Blake Jones)

   - Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups (Shrikanth Hegde):
      - Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
      - Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
      - Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead

   - Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)

   - Cleanups (Yury Norov):
      - Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
      - Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
      - Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()

  DL scheduler updates:

   - Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks (by Andrea Righi and Joel
     Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)

  RT scheduler updates:

   - Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)

  Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)

  This is part of the scheduler tree in this cycle due to inter-
  dependencies with the RSEQ based time slice extension work:

    - Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
    - Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
    - Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
    - Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()

  Scheduler core updates (Peter Zijlstra):

   - Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
   - Avoid rq->lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
   - Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =>
            rcu_dereference_sched_domain()
   - <linux/compiler_types.h>: Add the __signed_scalar_typeof() helper

  Fair scheduler updates/refactoring (Peter Zijlstra and Ingo Molnar):

   - Fold the sched_avg update
   - Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
   - Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
   - Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
   - Limit hrtick work
   - Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks
   - Clean up comments in 'struct cfs_rq'
   - Separate se->vlag from se->vprot
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime & helper functions
   - Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for
     wrapped-signed aritmetics
   - Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise

  Scheduler debugging code updates:

   - Export hidden tracepoints to modules (Gabriele Monaco)

   - Convert copy_from_user() + kstrtouint() to kstrtouint_from_user()
     (Fushuai Wang)

   - Add assertions to QUEUE_CLASS (Peter Zijlstra)

   - hrtimer: Fix tracing oddity (Thomas Gleixner)

   - Re-evaluate scheduling when migrating queued tasks out of throttled
     cgroups (Zicheng Qu)

   - Remove task_struct->faults_disabled_mapping (Christoph Hellwig)

0923fd0419 Locking updates for v6.20: 
Lock debugging:
 
  - Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context
    checking, using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context
    analysis features. (Marco Elver)
 
    We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
    removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context
    tracking Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which
    are false positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of
    false positive context tracking Sparse warnings grows to
    over 5,200... On the plus side of the balance actual locking
    bugs found by Sparse context analysis is also rather ... sparse:
    I found only 3 such commits in the last 3 years. So the
    rate of false positives and the maintenance overhead is
    rather high and there appears to be no active policy in
    place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move the
    annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
 
    Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive
    in trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has
    a different model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by
    subsystem, which results in zero warnings on all relevant
    kernel builds (as far as our testing managed to cover it).
    Which allowed us to enable it by default, similar to other
    compiler warnings, with the expectation that there are no
    warnings going forward. This enforces a zero-warnings baseline
    on clang-22+ builds. (Which are still limited in distribution,
    admittedly.)
 
    Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
    zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more
    subsystems and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking
    can be enabled for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y
    (default disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
 
    ( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
      if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
      relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )
 
 Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)
 
   - Add support for Atomic<i8/i16/bool> and replace most Rust native
     AtomicBool usages with Atomic<bool>
 
   - Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation
 
   - Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce
 
   - Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be
 
   - Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
     helper LTO
 
   - Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional
     function calls.
 
 WW mutexes:
 
   - Extend ww_mutex tests and other test-ww_mutex updates (John Stultz)
 
 Misc fixes and cleanups:
 
   - rcu: Mark lockdep_assert_rcu_helper() __always_inline
     (Arnd Bergmann)
 
   - locking/local_lock: Include more missing headers (Peter Zijlstra)
 
   - seqlock: fix scoped_seqlock_read kernel-doc (Randy Dunlap)
 
   - rust: sync: Replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings

4d84667627 Performance events changes for v7.0: 
x86 PMU driver updates:
 
  - Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs.
    Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's
    been a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
 
     - Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to
       replace the Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
 
     - New PEBS data source encoding layout
 
     - Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
 
    (Dapeng Mi)
 
  - Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for
    Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs, which center around these
    four main areas:
 
     - DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
       separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies.  Each CBB and
       each IMH die has its own discovery domain.
 
     - Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
       portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
       discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
 
     - DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA,
       UBR, PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
 
     - IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
 
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
    and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang
    and Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
    Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
 
  - Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL)
    CPUs, which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake.
    (Zide Chen)
 
  - Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
    (aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
    Airmont code. (Martin Schiller)
 
 Performance enhancements:
 
  - core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary
    cross CPU calls. (Jan H. Schönherr)
 
  - core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks
    (Namhyung Kim)
 
 User-space stack unwinding support:
 
  - Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize
    the unwinding code for other architectures. (Jens Remus)
 
 Uprobes updates:
 
  - Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
 
  - Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
 
  - Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)
 
 Misc fixes and cleanups:
 
  - s390: Remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild (Randy Dunlap)
 
  - x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni)
 
  - x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman)

13d83ea9d8 Crypto library updates for 7.0 
- Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.
 
   ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is a
   recently-standardized post-quantum (quantum-resistant) signature
   algorithm. It was known as Dilithium pre-standardization.
 
   The first use case in the kernel will be module signing. But there
   are also other users of RSA and ECDSA signatures in the kernel that
   might want to upgrade to ML-DSA eventually.
 
 - Improve the AES library:
 
     - Make the AES key expansion and single block encryption and
       decryption functions use the architecture-optimized AES code.
       Enable these optimizations by default.
 
     - Support preparing an AES key for encryption-only, using about
       half as much memory as a bidirectional key.
 
     - Replace the existing two generic implementations of AES with a
       single one.
 
 - Simplify how Adiantum message hashing is implemented. Remove the
   "nhpoly1305" crypto_shash in favor of direct lib/crypto/ support for
   NH hashing, and enable optimizations by default.
